“You have done very well tonight, Moree-san. I would like to play more
sometime.”
It is now well into the night. I thank Nakeno-san and his wife for their
generous hospitality. I bow and say sayonara
to them and their daughter, then
head for the bus stop. Riding home alone in the blackness, I realize what a good
and generous host Nakeno-san really is:
“He let me win!”
